Let the crying begin!

Wow, I'm better than Ease. Ty 4 dis!

[MHz]

Ratings look good. I'm seeing a few peeps I can exploit but nothing major. Perhaps a little generous on the 10*s in jav, but that's irrelevant anyway.

Edit: Nvm.

There's 5 10*'s in dtd/dtj and 12 in dtb. You jealous?

[Pressure]

I'm not playing so I don't actually care, but out of curiosity - how are a bunch of 1-shippers 9s and 10s, but an elite 3-shipper like wbm is an 8? Jw

[Tiny]

It's based on each league. apparently a 3 shipper like wbm who hasn't played much has deteriorated in his 3 league force? dunno

Did you even notice how few 9s and 10s there were? Kinda makes me sad that everyone good quit years ago. Also, technically speaking here, a 1-shipper that is better at that ship than a great 3 leaguer deserves the 9 or 10 in that ship. If it's all they play, they're probably better at it in ways a 3 leaguer wouldn't understand. Also, the only legit 3 leaguer I saw was Ease. Everyone else are not the top 5 of certain ships in each league, so it balances out.

Is wbm better at wb than racka (for instance)? If not, then racka deserves the 10 in wb while wbm does not. Makes sense to me?

[Tiny]

Agreed

Proper ratings. Am 6 star WB/JAV specialist at your service. Easy wins brah.

Ogron, could you do me a solid and highlight the captains in some color so some of us can just look at this sheet for drafting? Thanks a ton for all the work. <3

[ogron]

Yeah, I think the ratings are definitely better than last year, where it was simply an aggregate of the Captain's ratings. The camel by committee approach absolves TWDT Ops of responsibility ("I didn't do the ratings, the captains did!"), but it produces an inferior result because 1) there is no internal consistency (some people are more generous or Scrooge-y than others) and 2) It rounds up or down (6.5 produces a 7-star, while a 6.49 produces a 6 star).

Doing it with a small group by hand is simply better. There is some subjectivity and certain players who are borderline (you can make a case that they could be an 8 instead of a 7) and so there are going to be some value picks for Captain's to take advantage of. But, like Commodo said, I think last year there were some really exploitable low-star players that were unbalanced, and we worked hard to make sure we eliminated most (if not all) of them.

My thanks to Stayon, Zidane, Turban, Ease, and Weak for their help.

Yes Tiny, I can highlight the Captains for you.

Also, I will be creating and posting the low-star packages tonight.

U dun gud Claus.

Since a complaint is required to post in TWDT Rating threads, here's mine: I should be like a 3 star in Jav.

I thought it was pretty obvious I was talking about wbm's basing rating (as an example)
